Abstract

Thermoformed water-soluble packages are known, but some suffer from 'shrink-back', which prevents the volume of a formed cavity being fully utilised at the filling stage. To overcome this the present invention proposes a packaging system wherein each individual container (25) of a multiplicity of such containers all joined together in a group side by side in a web comprises an inner water-soluble or dispersible encapsulate (25) enclosed wholly within and thermoformed simultaneously with a protective external water-insoluble casing (19, 11), and each of the encapsulate and the casing is, separately, in the form of a thermoformed hollow body and a lid (23) and is made from two films (15, 12 and 19, 11) bound together by one common seal, so that each encapsulate is in contact only with the inner wall of its casing.

Claims

37AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 9 January 2003 (09.01.03); original claims 1-29 replaced by amended claims 1-28 (5 pages)]
1. A web comprising a plurality of containers, each container comprising a composition (33) in an internal thermoformed or vacuum formed water- soluble vessel with a water-soluble lid (12) sealed thereto to form an encapsulate (25) , each encapsulate (25) being within an external thermoformed or vacuum formed water-resistant or water-insoluble holder (11) , the holder and water-soluble vessel being formed in a single forming process.
2. A web according to claim 1 wherein each holder comprises an open-topped cavity in which an encapsulate sits.
3. A web according to claim 1 wherein each holder is provided with a lid (35) which is removably sealed to the holder (11) .
4. A web according to claim 3 wherein the holder lid is water-insoluble or water resistant .
5. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the water soluble vessel comprises a poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVOH) or cellulose derivative. 38
6. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the thickness of the vessel walls is from 20 to 500 μm.
7. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the thickness of the vessel walls is from 40 to 120 μm and the thickness of the vessel lid is from 20 to 80 μm.
8. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the holder is semirigid.
9. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the holder comprises a polyester or a nylon/polyethylene laminate, in amorphous form.
10. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the thickness of the walls of the holder is from 60 to 1000 μm.
11. A web according to claim 10 wherein the thickness of the walls of the holder is from 120 to 750 μm.
12. A web according to claim 10 or 11 wherein the thickness of the walls of the holder is about 170 μm and the walls comprise an amorphous polyethylene terephthalate .
13. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the vessel and holder are each of a nestable, tapered cylindrical shape .
14. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the vessel and holder are in intimate contact over substantially all of the inner surface of the holder.
15. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the composition is a liquid composition.
16. A web according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the composition is a fabric care, surface care or dishwashing compositio .
17. A web according to claim 16 wherein the composition is a dishwashing, water-softening, laundry or detergent composition or a rinse aid.
18. A web according to claim 16 wherein the composition is a disinfectant, antibacterial or antiseptic composition, or a refill composition for a trigger- type spray.
19. A container comprising a composition in an internal thermoformed or vacuum formed water- soluble vessel with a water-soluble lid sealed thereto to form an encapsulate, the encapsulate being within an external thermoformed or vacuum formed water-resistant or water-insoluble holder, the holder and water-soluble vessel being formed in a single forming process.
20. A container according to claim 19 which has the features of any one of claims 2 to 18.
21. A container according to claim 19 or 20 which contains a unit dose of the composition.
22. A method for making a web or container as defined in any one of the preceding claims which comprises: a. positioning a first water-soluble film face to face with a water-resistant or water- insoluble film the films being in intimate contact such that there is no, or substantially no air trapped between them; b. feeding the films on to the mould of a forming machine with the water-resistant or water-insoluble film being closest to the mould; c. forming the films in the mould to make an internal vessel cavity and an external holder; d. filling the cavity with a composition; e. positioning a water-soluble lid over the filled vessel; and 41
f . sealing the lid to the water-soluble film.
23. A method according to claim 22 which further comprises : g. cutting the water-soluble film and lid to separate at least one of the vessels or encapsulates .
24. A method according to claim 23 which further comprises : h. removing an area of waste film produced by the cutting.
25. A method according to any one of claims 22 to 24 which further comprises: i. removably sealing a water-insoluble or water-resistant lid to the top of the holder.
26. A method according to any one of claims 22 to
25 which forms a web comprising a plurality of containers
27. A method according to claim 26 wherein the web comprises a two-dimensional array of containers and is formed on a continuous or discontinuous basis.
28. A method according to claim 26 or 27 wherein a web is cut into individual containers or smaller groups of containers.
